Metropolitan Ball 2012…..the good the bad and the Ugly.

Hello Fashionistas! I hope all is well and that you are staying fabulous as usual. The Metropolitan Ball or Met Gala for short was this Monday . From the looks of the fashion that the stars were wearing that night it kinda left me in a stupor. I liked but I didn’t like. These are some of my fav’s and the looks that had me wondering …what planet is your stylist living on? Anywho let’s begin.

You have to give props to anyone who has given birth and their body bounces back like a rubber ball. I give kudo’s to Beyonce for going there , she wears it so well . Give em HELL Honey B!

I was Prom King and Prom Queen …..

Hola Fashionistas!! I hope all is well and that you are staying fabulous as usual . As we die-hard Andrej Pejic fans know that he was discovered working in a Mc Donalds restaurant. On an episode of the fab Inside the Models Studio hosted by James Lim, Andrej proclaimed he was Prom King and Queen at his high school Prom. That’s not hard to believe . He has the swag of  both genders and he wears it well. 

 

 

“I was prom queen and the year before I was prom king,  it was kind of the same you just get a different shaped crowned.” -Andrej

 

Pejic also  opened up about how society views him, explaining he fears he has been pigeonholed.  I feel like people are typecast very easy ” .  It was a base for me and I’ve proved that I can be versatile in the modelling and other things like acting or singing.” Andrej states he and other androgynous models are being judged to harshly .


“Well I love my model transgender sisters,  This is usually a group of people who are not treated nicely by society. They are usually segregated and go thorough torment and it’s nice to sort of share these stories and open people’s minds.” – Andrej

 

Either way we love all the transgender models that are rocking the runway . I don’t know how female models feel about it but there is room for everyone to eat off of this global  fashion platter. 


Until next time….

Crush Kidz Model Keiara Renee and her Lucky Brand Jeans Experience

Hola Fashionistas! I hope all is well and that you are staying fabulous as usual. Lucky Brand Jeans is an all american company owned by Liz Claiborne. They carry jeans for the entire family with excellent quality that is truly a statement pair that will last over time. So when Lucky Brand jeans opened their first flagship store at the Summit they created a contest for models to walk in the show. To top it all off Tim Gunn of Project Runway fame would host the show for the day ! Crush Kidz model Keiaira Renee went to the open call and booked the event. 

The look in this picture:  Dress by As U Wish       Shoes: Wild Pair           Accessories : Betsy Johnson

Keiaira had to be at the event early that Saturday morning and she was greeted and taken to another store front where Tim Gunn was already pulling looks for the fashion show. Keiaira was then greeted and met Tim Gunn where he personally pulled her look for the show. Keiaira was elated and loved every minute of it. Next was off to Sephora where all the models got there make-up done and then off to lunch.

After lunch the models began to assemble to hit the runway . I was shocked after all the food they ate their makeup was still in tact. Of course Sephora’s makeup artist gave them a touch up before the runway but a very small dap here and they were ready ! 

The man of the hour was introduced and out comes Tim Gunn in a pair of slim fit Red Jeans. He commented  at the visual of him wearing red jeans but I thought he looked amazing in them .

Tim Gunn then opened the show with models premiering the new line and looks  from Lucky Brand Jeans. From maxi dresses, to light blazers the looks were right on time for the season. Up next was Keiaira Renee and her turn to walk the runway . She was adorned with a light white blazer, straw hat, versatile flats and the deepest blue denims. She looked amazing …a total fashion moment.

The evening proceeded with a mixer and a meet and greet with Tim Gunn. Sephora ‘s amazing team even touched up attendee’s pf the show to take a picture with the fashion guru himself. Visit the Lucky Brand Jeans store in the Summit for your Summer fashion fix. Congrats to Crush Kidz model Keiaira Renee we can’t wait to see you in many more fashion shows.

Until Next Time….

Did you guys see Kanye last night ?

Hello fashionistas! I just had to write something about Kanye West and the SWAG on 106th and Park last night. First off he was brought on by 2 Chainz  and he was supposed to co-sign for the album.  First off he didn’t open his mouth at all . I guess that’s the new thing to do , get invited for an interview and not say a word.  That’s that new new .

You may be asking ok what does this have to do with fashion …..everything . His jacket was cheetah ….and fierce!! Then to top it all off the new Air Yeezy’s with the green bottoms , EPIC!   2 Chainz didn’t look to bad himself except for the necklace, I loved the Jeremy Scott custom  made Adidas.

All in all it was a true fashion moment !!


Until  next time…..

Rip the Runway …….at the Merienda Lounge

Hello Fashionistas!! I hope all is well and that everyone is staying fabulous as usual . Over the last two weeks …count them… two weeks,  I have been on a fashion world wind. Fresh off the hills of Miami Beach International  Fashion Week was the Lucky Brand Jeans event then Rip the Runway . You should be familiar with BET’s Rip the Runway , but we are not talking about BET’S Annual show. We are talking about Icons Entertainment take on Rip the Runway . 

Rip the Runway featured some of Birmingham’s hottest trends in fashion and what’s next for the Summer 2012. The show was divided into two parts . With presentations from one of my favorite boutiques: Iconz , and a slew of other vendors , stylist and fashion lovers . We saw Spring /Summer apparel from City Gear , Dr. Denim, Purse Party, IamFashun,ISPOT,Trends and many more.

A  portion of the show was based on one of the baddest stylist coming out of Birmingham this year . Who is this stylist you ask , Ms Tasha Dancy and her” High Couture” shoe wear . Fierce honey ! The start of her presentation where the babies in their custom flats . A must have for the Spring and Summer seasons.


The audience was very stylish as well. If you looked around the room you saw fashion and glam from wall to wall. 

Models on the Runway !!

I really loved the show and I want to thank Icons and Jay Fuller for the opp to come and see all the fabulousness of the night. I can’t wait until next years show. 

Until Next Time….
